SONGS OF THE SEA CHILDREN: 74, by BLISS CARMAN Poet's Biography First Line: Once when the winds of spring came home Last Line: Save only love. Subject(s): Love | ||||||||
Once when the winds of spring came home From the far countries where they roam, I heard them tell Of things I could not understand, And strange adventures in a land Where all was well. I do not wonder any more What Autumn at his open door Is dreaming of; I am so happy to have done With all the things underneath the sun Save only love. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE INVENTION OF LOVE by MATTHEA HARVEY TWO VIEWS OF BUSON by ROBERT HASS A LOVE FOR FOUR VOICES: HOMAGE TO FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN by ANTHONY HECHT AN OFFERING FOR PATRICIA by ANTHONY HECHT LATE AFTERNOON: THE ONSLAUGHT OF LOVE by ANTHONY HECHT A SWEETENING ALL AROUND ME AS IT FALLS by JANE HIRSHFIELD A MORE ANCIENT MARINER by BLISS CARMAN |
